British maritime security firm Ambrey said on Tuesday a Panama-flagged and UAE-linked products tanker was reportedly interdicted approximately 51 nautical miles northwest of the Iranian port of Bandar-e jesk.

It said an urgency broadcast transmitted that the vessel has been "hijacked."

Ambrey said it assessed the vessel was aligned with the Iranian "shadow fleet," adding a sister vessel was designated by OFAC under the Iranian sanctions programme.
